Glutathione maintenance mitigates age-related susceptibility to redox cycling agents
Isolated hepatocytes from young (4–6 mo) and old (24–26 mo) F344 rats were exposed to increasing concentrations of menadione, a vitamin K derivative and redox cycling agent, to determine whether the age-related decline in Nrf2-mediated detoxification defenses resulted in heightened susceptibility to...
